  • Patent number: 11716137
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for determining a distance (or range) between a first wireless entity and a second wireless entity. In an aspect, the first wireless entity transmits a first positioning reference signaling (PRS) signal to the second wireless entity at a first time, where the first PRS signal is received by the second wireless entity at a second time, and receives a second PRS signal from the second wireless entity at a third time, where the second PRS signal is transmitted by the second wireless entity at a fourth time. The first wireless entity enables the distance to be determined by a location computing entity, for example, by a location server, based on the first, second, third, and fourth times. The first wireless entity may be a mobile device or a base station and the second wireless entity may be the other of the mobile device or base station.

  • Patent number: 10291320
    Abstract: Techniques described herein, which may provide for a location determination of a mobile device, can also provide for the determination of a viewing direction of a user of the mobile device. In particular, a user can wear a head-mountable apparatus with one or more light sensors configured to detect light from one or more modulated light sources. Using this information, not only may a location of the head-mountable apparatus be determined, but also an orientation, which can enable a determination of an approximate direction the user is looking.

  • Publication number: 20190109815
    Abstract: An IP address for a resource node may be discovered. In a method, a first client receives an IP address request. The IP address request includes destination geographical location information associated with the resource node. The first determines whether the destination geographical location information is within a geographical coverage area of the first client. The first client forwards the IP address request to a next client that is geographically closer to the resource node based on the destination geographical location information if the destination geographical location information is not within the geographical coverage area of the first client.

  • Publication number: 20180317111
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for optimizing performance of positioning measurements. In an aspect, a wireless mobile device receives a positioning measurements request indicating a plurality of cells of a cellular network to be measured by the wireless mobile device, and, for each cell of the plurality of cells having an entry in a memory of the wireless mobile device: based on an indicator indicating that previous positioning measurements for the cell are valid, retrieves the previous positioning measurements for the cell from the memory of the wireless mobile device and sends the previous positioning measurements for the cell to the location server, and, based on the indicator indicating that the previous positioning measurements for the cell are not valid, performs new positioning measurements for the cell and sends the new positioning measurements for the cell to the location server.

  • Patent number: 10034209
    Abstract: Various embodiments include methods of offloading user equipment communication traffic between communications drones. The methods may include receiving, at a candidate communication drone, a replacement request from a requesting communication drone. Radio frequency (RF) communication parameters may be set for the candidate communication drone to take over communications of the requesting communication drone. The RF communication parameters may be determined based on the replacement request and may distinguish the candidate communication drone from the requesting communication drone and at least one neighboring communication drone. The candidate communication drone may move toward a target position adjacent a position of the requesting communication drone without radiating RF communications for taking over communications of the requesting communication drone.

  • Patent number: 9999094
    Abstract: Techniques for co-existence on a shared communication medium are disclosed. An activation command may be received, over a backhaul connection and via a first Radio Access Technology (RAT), configuring the first RAT for active operation on a shared communication medium. An activity indicator may be generated based on the active operation of the first RAT. Based on the activity indicator, one or more measurements scheduled to be performed on the communication medium in accordance with a second RAT and a corresponding wakeup schedule may be disabled. Access of a first RAT to a shared communication medium may also be monitored. A priority indicator for the first RAT may be generated based on the monitored access. Based on the priority indicator, release of a backhaul connection on the communication medium that is associated with a second RAT may be coordinated.

  • Patent number: 9959888
    Abstract: A user wearing headphones (e.g., to listen to music, to engage in a voice call, etc.) may speak while receiving an audio signal through the headphones, which may cause the user to produce Lombard speech. Because the Lombard effect is generally involuntary, the user may be unaware that he or she is producing Lombard speech. The Lombard speech may inconvenience proximate individuals and/or embarrass the user (e.g., in an office, in an airport, etc.). An apparatus may be configured to receive, through a microphone communicatively coupled to the apparatus, an audio signal. The apparatus may be configured to determine whether the audio signal indicates speech by a user. The apparatus may be further configured to alert the user based on the determination that the audio signal indicates Lombard speech by the user.
